Compression Spring is a type of Helical Spring which is open. When force is applied axially, this compression spring offers resistance. These springs are made of metal and are efficient to store energy.

1. COMPRESSION
SPRINGS
DESIGN, MANUFACTURING AND
APPLICATION

2. COMPRESSION SPRING
• Compression Spring is also a type of Helical
Spring
• Resistance is offered by this spring, when axial
force acts on it. . Compression spring can
store energy.
• Once load is applied on this spring , it
compresses and then pushes the load to
restore to original length.

3. DIRECTION OF WIND
• The compression springs are
generally winded in two
directions
• They can be left handed or
right handed winding
• The coils will be in opposite
direction when they are placed
together.

4. SHAPES IN COMPRESSION SPRINGS
• The most common shapes in Compression Springs :
• Cone Spring,
• Battery Spring
• Hour glass shaped
• Barrel spring.

5. STRESSES ACTING ON
COMPRESSION SPRINGS
• Stress act depending on load, dimensions and deflection
• Torsion acts when spring is loaded.
• Static load acts when stress is low.
• Tensile stress also acts on compression springs.

6. MANUFACTURING PROCESS
• Coiling
• Grinding
• Quality Control
• Coating and Coding

7. APPLICATIONS
• Used in automotive
industries, electronic
devices, medical
devices and other
instruments.
